December Meeting Reminder

The Monadnock Camera Club will meet in the Jaffrey Civic Center at 7 PM on December 17th. We will be viewing black and white prints which were entered into a circuit with six other New England Clubs. The prints have been judged by a New England Camera Club Judge (Shiv Verma)and his comments recorded for our listening pleasure. This is a photographic learning experience. Certificates of merit have been awarded to some of the circuit participants.

We will also be choosing digital images for our winter competition. These images will be judged by NECCC judges along with images sent by other clubs. Our club will choose four nature and four general images for this competition. Nature images should exclude anything man made including domestic flowers and animals. Images should be sized 1024x768 pixels horizontally and 768xless than 768 pixels vertically. You may send your images to us via e-mail at monadnockcc@gmail.com. Please send them by Dec. 15 so I have time to make a list for voting. You have more of a chance of being chosen if you just send one, but you may send up to three.

We will also choose four black and white prints by four different makers for the winter competition. These should be matted with mats no smaller than 8x10 and no bigger than 16x20. It will be quicker if you just bring one and save any other you have for the next contest in the spring.

Color prints will also be chosen. Again we will choose four and they need to be matted with mats no smaller than 8x10 nor bigger than 16x20. Four different makers is required.

The assignment for this month is "old". If you have some pictures of some old thing, you may bring them to show at the meeting.

Refreshments will be served.

April Meeting Reminder

The Monadnock Camera Club will meet at 7 PM at the Jaffrey Civic Center on April 16th. We will be viewing the Nature Digital Circuit. This circuit is quite detailed and should be very enlightening. The assignment for this month is "animals". I have taken the liberty of putting many of the club members shots of animals into one folder, which I thought we could run while we are having refreshments. We can also view any new shots that have been taken. Sonjia will be providing refreshments.
